TOPIC: THE ARK OF GOD
TEXT: 2 SAM. 6:11
Welcome to a new week. Every mountain-like situation before you this week shall melt like wax in Jesus name. I see you taking giant strides and prevailing over your enemies in Jesus name.
King David lodged the ark of the Lord in a good house, the house of Obed-edom, a Levite, which happened to be near the place where this disaster happened.
Obed-edom undoubtedly received the ark of God, it was kindly entertained and welcomed, and continued there three months. Obed-edom knew what slaughter the ark had made among the Philistines that imprisoned it and the Bethshemites that looked into it. He saw Uzzah struck dead for touching it, and perceived that David himself was afraid of meddling with it, yet he cheerfully accepted it to his own house and opened his doors to it without fear, knowing it was a savour of death unto death only to those that treated it ill.
Oh behold the courage of an honest and faithful heart! nothing can make God otherwise than amiable to His own people, even His very justice is lovely.
It paid well for him and his household. The Lord blessed Obed-edom and all his household. The same hand that punished Uzzah’s proud presumption rewarded Obed-edom’s humble boldness, and made the ark of the Lord to him a savour of life unto life.
The ark of God is a guest which we must warmly welcome. The ark of God is the ark of safety, deliverance, salvation and prosperity. Whereas before, Obed-edom was poor and suddenly in these three months, his estate increased, to the envy of his neighbours.
In wisdom’s left hand are riches and honour. His household shared in the blessings that the ark of the Lord brought to him.
To be continued.......
Enjoy your day/week!
Personal confession: Father, let your presence in my life bring forth blessings into my life in Jesus name.
